MORE ABOUT CLAYTON

The community which has grown into the Town of Clayton was built on a road cut by Governor Tryon’s troops around 1770 as they marched North
from New Bern to Hillsborough. Nearly 100 years later the railroad came through and the community had it’s first name—Stallings’ Station, since the depot for the NC Railroad was in the home of Mrs. Sarah Stallings. Three years later name was changed to Clayton for a senator from Delaware. Incorporation followed in 1869.
